Liam's 11th Birthday

Since Liam's birthday comes so close to Christmas, we sometimes try to celebrate a bit early to create some separation. This year we planned a surprise party that included three of Liam's friends from school. The Pacific Science Center was hosting the Harry Potter Exhibit and also showing the Deathly Hallows Part 1, both of which Liam wanted to see. So on Saturday morning Emily took Liam to his drum lesson and while he was out of the house we decorated, the boys arrived and we were all set for his big surprise when he got back to the house. He was definitely surprised! It was a great day out with Liam and his friends, although I will admit that spending the day with four 11 year old boys can be pretty exhausting.

It was a very traditional celebration with pizza, cake and icecream (all gluten free of course).
